Ladysmith House is situated in the old fishing village of Scalloway Shetland. This quaint, recently refurbished 2 bedroomed cottage sleeps up to 5 and has retained much of it's old-world charm with a modern twist.

The cottage overlooks the picturesque harbour and 17th century Scalloway Castle. Pine trees shelter the property making it an ideal place for migrant birdwatching, while at the back of the house you can make friends with the Shetland ponies which freely roam behind the hill dyke.

Beautiful white sandy beaches are just a short drive away and the cottage is perfectly situated for lovely walks in the surrounding area. A short stroll takes you down to the harbour where there is always plenty of boating activity and you might spot a seal popping up for a look or even a shy otter near the marina.

Sittingroom with wood-burning stove, satellite TV, DVD, video and bay window.
